Chicken Charlie’s is a notoriously delicious and equally talked about Del Mar, CA-based restaurant that gets it shine in the summer season. For summer 2011, the folks behind Chicken Charlie’s stand will be at four summertime fairs serving up the craziest of the crazy in fried goodness: San Diego County Fair, the OC Fair, the LA County Fair, and the Big Fresno Fair.

New on the menu for this year include Fried Kool Aid, Fried Girl Scout Cookies, FryBQ Ribs, and Totally Fried Brownies. We visited Chicken Charlie’s last year for a great behind-the-scenes as he let us go nuts on all his amazing fried delicacies during the 2010 OC Fair.
